'(Cannot run program "make": Launching failed) .' in Eclipse

Question

I am using Eclipse for Windows and have this error:

Build of configuration Debug for project helloworld
(Cannot run program "make": Launching failed)

What do I do to solve this?

I am adding a bounty because I would like an answer for Windows 8.1 and Eclipse Kepler or Luna. — Patricia Shanahan, Aug 24 '14 at 02:51

I faced the same problem while installing Eclipse for c/c++ applications .I downloaded Mingw GCC ,put its bin folder in your path ,used it in toolchains while making new C++ project in Eclipse and build which solved my problem. Referred to this video
